How do you think our Bill of Rights ensures that our government does not become despotic (abusive or tyrannical)?

Step-by-step explanation:

The Bill of Rights consists of 10 amendments that explicitly guarantee certain rights and protections to US citizens by limiting the power of the federal government. The First Amendment prevents the government from interfering with the freedoms of speech, peaceable assembly, and exercise of religion.
